具体实施方式
以下结合附图对本发明的具体实施方式进行详细说明。应当理解的是,此处所描述的具体实施方式仅用于说明和解释本发明,并不用于限制本发明。
如图1所示,作为本发明的一个方面,提供一种移位寄存单元,所述移位寄存单元包括开始信号输入端Vin、时钟信号端CK、高电平输入端VDD、低电平输入端VSS和信号输出端Vout,并且还包括第一信号转换模块100和第二信号转换模块200。第一信号转换模块100的输入端与开始信号输入端Vin相连,第一信号转换模块100的输出端与第二信号转换模块200的输入端相连,第二信号转换模块200的输出端与信号输出端Vout相连。第一信号转换模块100还分别与时钟信号端CK、高电平输入端VDD相连和低电平输入端VSS相连。第二信号转换模块200还分别与时钟信号端CK、高电平输入端VDD相连和低电平输入端VSS相连,通过高电平输入端VDD输 入的高电平信号与通过低电平输入端VSS输入的低电平信号中的一者为有效信号,另一者为无效信号,通过所述时钟信号端CLK输入时钟信号。
在所述时钟信号为第一电平、所述开始信号为无效信号的预处理阶段(图3和图5中的t0阶段),第一信号转换模块100能够向第二信号转换模块200输出无效信号,第二信号转换模块200能够根据第一信号转换模块100输出的无效信号以及时钟信号输出无效信号。
在所述时钟信号为第二电平、所述开始信号为有效信号的第一信号写入阶段(图3和图5中的t1阶段),第一信号转换模块100能够向第二信号转换模块200输出无效信号,第二信号转换模块200能够根据第一信号转换模块100输出的无效信号以及所述时钟信号输出无效信号。
在所述时钟信号为第一电平、所述开始信号为有效信号的第二信号写入阶段(图3和图5中的t2阶段),第一信号转换模块100能够向第二信号转换模块200输出有效信号,第二信号转换模块200能够根据第一信号转换模块100输出的有效信号以及所述时钟信号输出无效信号。
在所述时钟信号为第二电平、所述开始信号为无效信号的第一输出阶段(图3和图5中的t3阶段),第一信号转换模块100能够向第二信号转换模块200输出有效信号,第二信号转换模块200能够根据第一信号转换模块100输出的有效信号以及所述时钟信号输出有效信号。
在所述时钟信号为第一电平、所述开始信号为无效信号的第二输出阶段(图3和图5中的t4阶段),第一信号转换模块100能够向第二信号转换模块200输出无效信号,第二信号转换模块200能够根据第一信号转换模块100输出的无效信号以及所述时钟信号输出有效信号。
容易理解的是,第一电平不同于第二电平。当第一电平为高电平时,第二电平则为低电平;当第一电平为低电平时,第二电平则为 高电平。“有效信号”和“无效信号”的电平高低是根据采用所述移位寄存单元的显示装置的显示区中的薄膜晶体管的类型确定的,其中所谓的“有效信号”是指能够使得显示装置的显示区中的薄膜晶体管导通的信号,而所谓的“无效信号”则是指能够使得显示装置的显示区中的薄膜晶体管截止的信号。
上述五个阶段结束后,完成了一次输入信号的移位。通过以上描述可知,在本发明所提供的移位寄存单元中,仅需要单相时钟信号进行控制,从而简化了移位寄存单元的结构,并且降低了移位寄存单元的功耗。采用本发明所提供的移位寄存单元的显示装置可以实现窄边框和低能耗。
作为本发明的一种实施方式,第一信号转换模块100和第二信号转换模块200可以分别是正锁存器和负锁存器中的一种和另一种。例如,第一信号转换模块100为正锁存器,第二信号转换模块200为负锁存器。这种情况下,所述第一电平为高电平,所述第二电平为低电平,当所述时钟信号端CK输入的信号为第一电平时,第一信号转换模块100处于透明模式,第二信号转换模块200处于维持模式;当所述时钟信号为第二电平时,第一信号转换模块100处于维持模式,第二信号转换模块200处于透明模式。
本领域技术人员应当理解的是,当锁存模块处于透明模式时,锁存模块的输出信号与其输入信号相同,当锁存模块处于维持模式时,锁存模块维持上一阶段的输出信号不变。
当第一信号转换模块100处于透明模式时,该第一信号转换模块100的输出信号与输入至第一信号转换模块100的输入信号相同;当第一信号转换模块100处于维持模式时,输出信号与上一阶段的信号相同。同样地,当第二信号转换模块200处于透明模式时,该第二信号转换模块200的输出信号与输入第二信号转换模块200的输入信号相同,当第二信号转换模块200处于维持模式时,输出信号维持上一阶段的输出信号不变。
在本发明中,输入信号的脉冲宽度大于时钟信号的脉冲宽度,并且,输入信号的高电平持续时间与时钟信号的一个周期的时间相 同。
当输入信号为有效信号时、时钟信号为第二电平时,第一信号转换模块100处于维持状态,因此,第一信号转换模块100输出的信号为无效信号。由于时钟信号为第二电平信号,第二信号转换模块200处于透明状态,因此,第二信号转换模块200可以输出与第一信号转换模块100所输出的无效信号相同的信号。
当输入信号为有效信号、时钟信号为第一电平时,第一信号转换模块100处于透明状态,因此,第一信号转换模块100输出的信号与输入信号相同,均为有效信号。由于时钟信号为第一电平,因此,第二信号转换模块200处于维持状态,第二信号转换模块200输出的输出信号仍然是上一阶段的无效信号。
当输入信号为无效信号、时钟信号为第二电平时,第一信号转换模块100处于维持状态,仍然可以维持输出上一个阶段的有效信号。由于时钟信号为第二电平,因此第二信号转换模块200处于透明状态,其可以输出与输入至第二信号转换模块200的信号相同的信号,因此可以输出有效的信号。
通过上述描述还可以知道,本发明所提供的移位寄存单元中的第一信号转换模块100和第二信号转换模块200构成了主从边沿触发器,因此,消除了时钟信号的占空比的大小对输出信号的影响,可以获得稳定的有效输出信号。并且,输出信号的有效信号持续时间仅与时钟信号的周期有关,有效避免了现有技术中多相时钟信号重叠所带来的不良影响。
当使用所述移位寄存单元的显示装置的显示区中的薄膜晶体管为P型晶体管时,有效信号为低电平信号;当使用所述移位寄存单元的显示装置的显示区中的薄膜晶体管为N型晶体管时,有效信号为高电平信号。
在本发明所提供的实施方式中,有效信号为高电平信号,无效信号为低电平信号。
并且,在本发明中,第一电平和第二电平的高低也没有具体的规定,第一电平和第二电平的高低则是由第一信号转换模块和第二信 号转换模块中采用的晶体管的类型所决定的。
在本发明中,对第一信号转换模块100以及第二信号转换模块200的具体结构并没有特殊的限制,只要第一信号转换模块100和第二信号转换模块200串联能够形成主从边沿触发器,进而实现移位寄存单元的功能即可。
作为本发明的一种实施方式,如图2中所示,第一信号转换模块100包括串联的第一反相器110和第二反相器120,当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为第一电平时,第一反相器110能够将输入的所述开始信号反相,第二反相器120能够将第一反相器110输出的信号反相。在图2所示的实施例中,第一电平为高电平,第二电平为低电平。
相应地,第二信号转换模块200包括串联的第三反相器210和第四反相器220,当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为第二电平时,第三反相器210能够将第二反相器120输出的信号反相,并且第四反相器220能够将第三反相器210输出的信号反相。
当时钟信号为第一电平时,第一反相器110将通过开始信号输入端Vin输入的信号进行第一反相操作,并将第一反相操作后的信号输送至第二反相器120,而第二反相器120将第一反相操作后的信号进行第二反相操作,也就是说,第二反相操作后的信号电平与原始的输入信号相同,从而实现了第一信号转换模块100的透明模式。当时钟信号为第二电平信号时,第一反相器110不进行反相操作(即,第一反相器110维持上一个阶段的输出),第二反相器120也不进行反相操作(即,第二反相器120维持上一个阶段的输出),从而可以使得第一信号转换模块100处于维持状态。
当时钟信号为第一电平时,第三反相器210和第四反相器220不进行反相操作,从而可以使得第二信号转换模块200处于维持状态。当时钟信号为第二电平时,第三反相器220能够将第二反相器输出的信号进行第一反相操作,并将第一反相操作后的信号输出至第四反相器230,第四反相器230能够对第一反相操作后的信号进行第二反相操作,也就是说,第二反相操作后的信号电平与原始的输入信号 相同,从而实现了第二信号转换模块200的透明模式。
在本发明中,对上述各个反相器(包括第一反相器、第二反相器、第三反相器和第四反相器)的具体结构并没有特殊的规定。
作为本发明的一种实施方式,如图2中所示,第一反相器110包括第一晶体管T1、第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3,其中第一晶体管T1为P型晶体管,第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3为N型晶体管,第一晶体管T1的栅极和第三晶体管T3的栅极均与开始信号输入端Vin相连,第二晶体管T2的栅极与时钟信号端CK相连,,第一晶体管T1的第一极与高电平输入端VDD相连,第一晶体管T1的第二极与第二晶体管T2的第一极相连,第二晶体管T2的第二极与所述第三晶体管T3的第一极相连,第三晶体管T3的第二极与所述低电平输入端VSS相连。第二晶体管T2的第一极为第一反相器110的输出端。
当第一反相器110具有上述结构时,第一电平信号应当为高电平信号,而第二电平信号应当为低电平信号。在具有上述结构的第一反相器中,既包括P型晶体管,又包括N型晶体管,因此,可以利用CMOS工艺形成第一反相器,从而使得第一反相器具有速度快、集成度高、抗干扰能力强等优点。
当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为高电平信号时,第二晶体管T2导通。由于第一晶体管T1为P型晶体管,而第三晶体管T3为N型晶体管,因此,无论输入信号是高电平还是低电平,第一晶体管T1和第三晶体管T3中必有一个是导通的、而另一个是截止的。当开始信号为高电平信号时,第一晶体管T1截止,第三晶体管T3导通,从而将第二晶体管T2的第一极与低电平输入端VSS导通,从而输出低电平信号,相当于将开始信号反相。当开始信号为低电平时,第三晶体管T3截止,第一晶体管T1导通,从而将第二晶体管T2的第一极与高电平输入端VDD导通,从而输出高电平信号,亦相当于将开始信号反相。
当时钟信号为低电平信号时,第二晶体管T2截止。这种情况下,当输入信号为高电平信号,虽然第八晶体管T3能够导通,但是由于 第二晶体管T2是截止的,因此,第二晶体管T2的第一极维持上一个阶段的输出;当输入信号为低电平信号时,第一晶体管T1导通,第一反相器110输出高电平信号。
同样地,图2中还示出了第二反相器的一种具体实施方式。具体地,第二反相器120包括第四晶体管T4、第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6,其中,第四晶体管T4为P型晶体管,第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6为N型晶体管。
第四晶体管T4的第一极与高电平输入端VDD相连,第四晶体管T4的第二极与第五晶体管T5的第一极相连,第五晶体管T5的第二极与第六晶体管T6的第一极相连,第六晶体管T6的第二极与低电平输入端VSS相连。
第五晶体管T5的栅极与时钟信号端CK相连,第四晶体管T4的栅极和第六晶体管T6的栅极与第一反相器110的输出端相连,并且第四晶体管T4的第二极为第二反相器120的输出端。
在图2中所示的实施方式中,当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为高电平信号时,第五晶体管T5导通。这种情况下,如果第一反相器110输出高电平信号,那么第四晶体管T4截止,而第六晶体管T6导通,从而将第五晶体管T5的第一极与低电平输入端导通,从而输出低电平信号;如果第一反相器110输出低电平信号,那么第六晶体管T6截止,第四晶体管T4导通,从而将第五晶体管T5的第一极与高电平输入端VDD导通,从而输出高电平信号。
在图2中所示的实施方式中,当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为低电平时,第五晶体管T5截止。这种情况下,如果第一反相器110输出高电平,第四晶体管T4截止,第六晶体管T6导通,由于第五晶体管T5截止,因此,第二反相器120维持上一阶段的电平(在本实施例中为低电平);当第一反相器110输出低电平,第四晶体管T4导通,因此,第二反相器120可以输出高电平信号。
同样地,图2中还示出了第三反相器210的实施方式。第三反相器210包括第七晶体管T7、第八晶体管T8和第九晶体管T9,其中第七晶体管T7和第八晶体管T8为P型晶体管,第九晶体管T9为 N型晶体管。
第七晶体管T7的栅极和第九晶体管T9的栅极均与第二反相器120的输出端相连,第八晶体管T8的栅极与时钟信号端CK相连。第七晶体管T7的第一极与高电平输入端VDD相连,第七晶体管T7的第二极与第八晶体管T8的第一极相连,第八晶体管T8的第二极与第九晶体管T9的第一极相连,第九晶体管T9的第二极与低电平输入端VSS相连。第七晶体管T7的第二极为第三反相器210的输出端。
在图2中所示的实施方式中,当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为低电平信号时,第八晶体管T8导通。当第一信号转换模块100输出的信号为高电平信号时,第七晶体管T7截止,第九晶体管T9导通,从而将第八晶体管T8的第一极通过第九晶体管T9连接至低电平输入端VSS,使得第三反相器210输出低电平信号。当第一信号转换模块100输出的信号为低电平信号时,第七晶体管T7导通,第九晶体管T9截止,第八晶体管T8的第一极通过第七晶体管T7连接至高电平输入VDD,因此,第三反相器输出高电平信号。
当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为高电平信号时,第八晶体管T8截止。这种情况下,当第一信号转换模块100输出的信号为高电平信号时,第九晶体管T9导通,第七晶体管T7截止。由于第八晶体管T8截止,因此,第八晶体管T8的第一极维持上一个阶段的电平信号。当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为低电平信号时,第八晶体管T8导通。当第一信号转换模块100的输出端Vin’输出的信号为高电平信号时,第九晶体管T9导通,第七晶体管T7截止,从而将第八晶体管T8的第一端通过第九晶体管T9连接至低电平输入端VSS,输出低电平信号。当第一信号转换模块100的输出端Vin’输出的信号为低电平信号时,第七晶体管T7导通,第九晶体管T9截止,因此,第八晶体管T8的第一极与高电平输入端VDD导通,输出高电平信号。
在图2中还示出了第四反相器220的一种具体实施方式。具体地,第四反相器220包括第十晶体管T10、第十一晶体管T11和第十 二晶体管T12,第十晶体管T10和第十一晶体管T11为P型晶体管,第十二晶体管T12为N型晶体管。第十晶体管T10和第十二晶体管T12的栅极与第三反相器210的输出端相连,第十一晶体管T11的栅极与时钟信号端CK相连。第十晶体管T10的第一极与高电平输入端VDD相连,第十晶体管T10的第二极与第十一晶体管T11的第一极相连,第十一晶体管T11的第二极与第十二晶体管T12的第一极相连,第十二晶体管T12的第二极与低电平输入端VSS相连。信号输出端Vout与第十晶体管T10的第二极相连。
当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为高电平信号时,第十一晶体管T11截止。这种情况下,当第三反相器210输出的信号为高电平信号时,第十晶体管T10截止,第十二晶体管T12导通,第十一晶体管T11的第一极维持上一个阶段的电位;当第三反相器输出的信号为低电平信号时,第十晶体管T10导通,第十二晶体管T12截止,从而将信号输出端Vout与高电平输入端VDD导通,使得所述移位寄存单元输出高电平信号(相当于将第三反相器210输出的信号反相)。
当通过时钟信号端CK输入的时钟信号为低电平信号时,第十一晶体管T11导通。当第三反相器210输出的信号为高电平信号时,第十二晶体管T12导通,从而将第十一晶体管T11的第一极与低电平输入端VSS导通,输出低电平信号。当第三反相器210输出的信号为低电平信号时,第十晶体管T10导通,将第十一晶体管T11的第一极与高电平输入端VDD导通,从而输出高电平信号。
下面结合图2和图3描述图2中所示的具体实施方式的工作原理。在这种实施方式中,第一电平信号为高电平信号,第二电平信号为低电平信号。
在图2所示的实施方式中,第一反相器110的第二晶体管T2为N型晶体管,第一反相器110的输出端为第二晶体管T2的第一极。第二反相器120的第五晶体管T5的栅极与时钟信号端CK相连,第二反相器120的第四晶体管T4的栅极以及第六晶体管T6的栅极均与第一反相器110的输出端相连。第四反相器220包括第十一晶体管 T11、第十晶体管T10和第十二晶体管T12。第一反相器110和第二反相器120串联形成了第一信号转换模块100,第三反相器210和第四反相器220串联形成了第二信号转换模块200。在这种实施方式中,第一电平信号为高电平信号,第二电平信号为低电平信号,并且,有效信号为高电平信号。
如图3中所示,通过开始信号输入端Vin输入的开始信号的高电平持续时间与时钟信号的一个周期持续的时间相同。
在t0阶段,由于时钟信号为高电平信号,因此第二晶体管T2导通、第五晶体管T5导通、第八晶体管T8截止,第十一晶体管T11截止。由于开始信号为低电平信号,因此,第一晶体管T1导通,第三晶体管T3截止,使得第一反相器110输出高电平信号。第一反相器110输出的高电平信号使得第二反相器的第六晶体管T6导通,第四晶体管T4截止,因此,第二反相器120输出低电平信号。此时,第一信号转换模块100此时处于透明状态,也就是说,第一信号转换模块100的输入信号和输出信号都为低电平信号。由于第一信号转换模块100的输出端Vin’输出的信号为低电平信号,因此,第三反相器210的第七晶体管T7导通,第九晶体管T9截止,因此,第三反相器210输出的信号为高电平信号,从而使得第四反相器220的第十晶体管T10截止、第十二晶体管T12导通,从而可以使得信号输出端Vout维持上一个阶段的输出信号,也就是实现了第二信号转换模块200的维持状态。
在t1阶段,由于时钟信号为低电平信号,因此第一反相器110的第二晶体管T2截止,第二反相器120的第五晶体管T5截止。由于开始信号为高电平信号,因此,第一晶体管T1截止,第三晶体管T3导通,第二晶体管T2的第一极维持t0阶段的高电平信号,使得第六晶体管T6导通,第四晶体管T4截止,因此,第五晶体管T5输出的也是t0阶段的信号,也就是说,第一信号转换模块处于维持模式并维持上一个阶段的信号。第一信号转换模块100的输出节点Vin’输出的信号为低电平信号。由于在t1阶段中时钟信号为低电平,因此,第三反相器210的第八晶体管T8导通,通过第一信号转换模块 100的输出节点Vin’输入到第三反相器210的信号被反相为高电平信号。此时,第四反相器210的第十一晶体管T11导通,因此,第四反相器210将输入该第四反相器的信号反相为低电平信号,使得信号输出端Vout输出低电平信号,从而实现第二信号转换模块200的透明模式。
在t2阶段,由于时钟信号为高电平,因此第一反相器110的第二晶体管T2导通、第二反相器120的第五晶体管T5导通,因此,第一反相器110和第二反相器120均可进行反相操作。由于开始信号为高电平信号,因此,第一反相器110输出的信号为低电平信号,第二反相器120输出的信号为高电平信号,从而实现了第一信号转换模块100的透明模式。由于时钟信号为高电平信号,因此,第三反相器210的第八晶体管T8和第四反相器220的第十一晶体管T11均截止,这种情况下,由于第一信号转换模块100的输出端Vin’输出的信号为高电平信号,因此,第三反相器210的第九晶体管T9导通,第三反相器210的第七晶体管T7截止,第三反相器210的输出端维持上一阶段的高电平信号,使得第四反相器的第十晶体管T10截止,第四反相器的第十二晶体管T12导通,因此,第四反相器输出上一阶段的低电平信号,从而实现第二信号转换模块200的维持模式。
在t3阶段,由于时钟信号为低电平信号,因此第一反相器110的第二晶体管T2和第二反向器120的第五晶体管T5截止;由于开始信号为低电平信号,因此第一晶体管T1导通,第一反相器110输出高电平信号,使得第六晶体管T6导通,第四晶体管T4截止,因此,第二反相器120维持上一阶段的高电平信号。此时,第一信号转换模块100处于维持模式。由于时钟信号为低电平信号,因此,第三反相器210的第八晶体管T8、第四反相器220的第十一晶体管T11导通。由于第三反相器210的输入信号为高电平信号,因此,第三反相器210的输出信号为低电平信号,第四反相器的输出信号为高电平信号,从而实现第二信号转换模块200的透明模式。
在t4阶段,由于时钟信号为高电平,因此第一反相器110的第二晶体管T2导通,第二反相器120的第五晶体管T5导通;由于开 始信号为低电平,因此,第一晶体管T1导通,第三晶体管T3截止,第一反相器110输出高电平信号,第二反相器的第六晶体管T6导通,第四晶体管T4截止,因此,第二反相器120输出低电平信号,使得第一信号转换模块100处于透明状态。由于时钟信号为高电平信号,因此,第八晶体管T8和第十一晶体管T11截止。由于第一信号转换模块100输出低电平信号,因此,第七晶体管T7导通,第九晶体管T9截止,所以第三反相器210输出高电平信号,将第四反相器的第十二晶体管T12导通,将第十晶体管T10截止,因此,第四反相器220可以输出上一个阶段的高电平信号,使得第二信号转换模块200处于维持状态。
至此,完成一次移位操作,通过信号输入端Vin输入的开始信号经过移位后成为通过信号输出端Vout输出的输出信号。
除了图2中所示的实施方式之外,第一信号转换模块100还可以具有图4中所示的实施方式。
具体地,如图4中所示,第一信号转换模块100包括第一反相器110和第二反相器120。
第一反相器110包括第一晶体管T1、第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3,其中第一晶体管T1为P型晶体管,第二晶体管T2和第三晶体管T3为N型晶体管。第一晶体管T1的栅极和第三晶体管T3的栅极均与所述开始信号输入端Vin相连,第二晶体管T2的栅极与所述时钟信号端相连,第一晶体管T1的第一极与所述高电平输入端VDD相连,第一晶体管T1的第二极与第二晶体管T2的第一极相连,第二晶体管T2的第二极与第三晶体管T3的第一极相连,第三晶体管T3的第二极与所述低电平输入端VSS相连。第二晶体管T2的第二极为所述第一反相器的输出端。

第五晶体管T5的栅极与所述第一反相器的输出端相连,第四晶体管T4的栅极和第六晶体管T6的栅极与所述时钟信号端相连。
第四晶体管T4的第二极为所述第二反相器的输出端,第五晶体管T5的宽长比大于第三晶体管T3的宽长比。
第五晶体管T5、第六晶体管T6的宽长比大于第三晶体管T3、第八晶体管T8、第九晶体管T9的宽长比,可以使得第五晶体管T5的第一极的放电速度大于第三晶体管T3的第一极的放电速度并且大于第八晶体管T8第一极的放电速度。如此设置的优点是可使输出信号稳定,没有毛刺。例如,第五晶体管T5和第六晶体管T6的宽长比可以均为40∶1,第三晶体管T3、第八晶体管T8、第九晶体管T9的宽长比可以均为10∶1,但是本发明不限于此。
优选地,第二信号转换模块200包括第三反相器210和第四反相器220。
第三反相器210包括第八晶体管T8、第七晶体管T7和第九晶体管T9。其中,第七晶体管T7为P型晶体管,第九晶体管T9和第八晶体管T8为N型晶体管。

下面结合图4和图5描述本发明的第二种实施方式的移位寄存单元的具体工作原理。如图4所示的第二种实施方式的移位寄存单元只需要11个晶体管,进一步简化了移位寄存单元的结构。
在图4中所示的实施方式中,第一电平信号为低电平信号,第二电平信号为高电平信号。
在开始信号为低电平信号、时钟信号为低电平信号的t0阶段,第二晶体管T2导通,第一晶体管T1导通,第三晶体管T3截止,使得第一反相器110输出高电平信号。第一反相器110输出的高电平信号使得第二反相器120的第五晶体管T5导通,并且此时第二反相器120的第四晶体管T4导通,第六晶体管T6截止,因此,第二反相器120输出高电平信号。由于第一信号转换模块100的输出端输出的信号为高电平信号,因此,第三反相器210的第七晶体管T7截止,第九晶体管T9导通,由于第八晶体管T8截止,因此,第八晶体管T8的第一极维持上一个阶段的高电平信号,从而使得第四反相器220的第十晶体管T10截止以及第十二晶体管T12导通,从而使得信号输出端Vout输出低电平信号。
在开始信号为高电平信号、时钟信号为高电平信号的t1阶段,第一反相器110的第二晶体管T2截止,第三反相器210的第八晶体管T8导通。由于开始信号为高电平信号,因此,第一反相器110的第三晶体管T3导通、第一晶体管T1截止,因此,第一反相器110输出低电平信号。由于第五晶体管T5、第六晶体管T6的宽长比大于第三晶体管T3的宽长比,因此,第五晶体管T5、第六晶体管T6的放电速度大于第三晶体管T3、第八晶体管T8、第九晶体管T9的放电速度,因此,第七晶体管T7的栅极更早地放电到低电平信号,将第七晶体管T7导通,第九晶体管T9截止,并使得该第七晶体管T7的第二极通过第七晶体管T7的第一极连接至高电平输入端VDD,从而向第四反相器220输出高电平信号,将第四反相器220的第十二晶 体管T12导通,以将信号输出端Vout通过第十二晶体管T12连接至低电平输入端VSS,从而输出低电平信号。
在开始信号为高电平信号、时钟信号为低电平信号的t2阶段,在第一反相器110中,第二晶体管T2导通,第三晶体管T3导通,第一反相器110输出低电平信号,将第二反相器120的第五晶体管T5截止。第四晶体管T4是导通的,因此,第二反相器120输出高电平信号,将第九晶体管T9导通并将第七晶体管T7截止,第八晶体管T8截止,因此第八晶体管T8的第一极维持t1阶段的高电平信号,从而将第十晶体管T10截止、第十二晶体管T12导通,以使得信号输出端Vout通过第十二晶体管T12连接至低电平输入端VSS,从而输出低电平信号。
在开始信号为低电平信号、时钟信号为高电平信号的t3阶段,第一晶体管T1导通,第二晶体管T2截止,第三晶体管T3截止,因此,第一反相器的输出端输出上一阶段的低电平信号。第五晶体管T5截止,第四晶体管T4截止,第六晶体管T6导通,第五晶体管T5的第一极维持上一个阶段的高电平信号,从而将第九晶体管T9导通。由于第八晶体管T8也是导通的且第七晶体管T7截止,因此,第三反向器输出低电平信号,将第十晶体管T10导通,第十二晶体管T12截止,从而将信号输出端Vout通过第十晶体管T10连接至高电平输入端VDD,从而输出高电平信号。
在开始信号为低电平信号、时钟信号也为低电平信号的t4阶段,第一晶体管T1和第二晶体管T2均导通,第三晶体管T3截止,因此,第一反相器110输出高电平信号。第五晶体管T5导通,第四晶体管T4导通,第六晶体管T6截止,第二反相器120输出高电平信号。第九晶体管T9导通,第七晶体管T7截止,第八晶体管T8截止,因此,第八晶体管T8的第一极维持上一个阶段的低电平信号,从而将第十晶体管T10导通,第十二晶体管T12截止,从而将信号输出端Vout通过第十晶体管T10连接至高电平输入端VDD,从而输出高电平信号。
至此,完成一次移位操作,通过信号输入端Vin输入的开始信 号经过移位后成为通过信号输出端Vout输出的输出信号。
